During the past few years I’ve been developing an artistic/theoretical project that because of its interest and diversity it’s becoming a “work in progress.” This work transforms and adapts itself towards diverse forms, means and territories. The focal point is the analysis of the material culture as a reflection of our society; it is a theoretical and artistic investigation about the construction of the memory and the territory as a “cultural landscape”. The whole of it materializes in a visual manner in my artistic work and in a theoretical manner, in my thesis entitled “Memory as a Instrument in Contemporary Art,” registered in the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Complutense University in Madrid.

In relation to this contest, I use to create my works extra artistic estrategies that belong to analytical disciplines.Through the adquisition of contemporary methods and studies of anthropology, etnography, sociology, archaeology, cartography, museology and conservation, I can analize and question society from diverses points of view.
